Carmen didn’t know where Flynn got the idea that she was marrying an old man after dropping out from school. As Theo was about to pick him up like a little chick, Bailey suddenly showed up.
Finally, he wasn’t wearing Theo’s military coat when he got out of his car. Instead, he was wearing a black fur coat, looking casual and young. After taking off his sunglasses, he scanned through the group of people gathered by the school gate with his deep green eyes before walking toward them. Ignoring everyone, he immediately swept away Flynn’s hands on Carmen’s shoulder.
“Who are you?” Flynn stared at him rudely. Even though he didn’t recognize the man in front of him, he could still tell that he was no ordinary person due to his strong aura and rare green eyes.
As he glanced at Bailey, Bailey also did the same with his infinitely deep green eyes.
Bailey, on the other hand, knew who this person was.
His face is indeed very similar to Taylor’s face but there’s still a huge difference. On the surface, he is a cheap copy but in terms of his bone structure, it is totally different from Taylor’s.
However, Flynn could immediately guess the identity of the person in front of him.
“It’s you!”
At first, Carmen was shocked that Flynn was able to guess who Bailey was, but she didn’t expect him to rush up to Bailey and grabbed him by his shirt collar.
“You are that old man that Carmen is going to marry, right?” he roared. “You are the one forcing her to drop out of school so that she can marry you and have your kids, right? You will doom her for the rest of her life!”
Old man? Bailey was extremely sensitive toward these two words. I’m not old at all but why do I always hear these two words ever since I’m a kid, especially from Carmen’s family?
This wasn’t the first time he had heard these words.
Just as Bailey wanted to refute him, Carmen suddenly rushed up with a flushed face and pushed Flynn aside.
“Are you done?”
Hope also came to persuade Flynn to step back. After all, he was still the descendant of Hope’s family. In reality, Flynn’s previous grades were quite good and in Hope’s eyes, he could still barely be counted as an achieving student. At that time, there was hope for him to be enrolled into Bayside University. However, Carmen, who was the epitome of a top student, came in afterward and carried his studies for a year to a point where he regressed because he was too reliant on her.
Even so, Flynn was still glaring at Bailey while gritting his teeth.
As for Bailey, he didn’t even want to spare Flynn a glance. To him, a little brat like Flynn posed no sort of threat at all, so he grabbed Carmen’s bag straight away and murmured, “Your mom asked me to come pick you up.”
As expected, it was Sophia again.
Today was another test.
As soon as everyone found out that Carmen was expelled from school, the whole family felt happy for her and Cooper quickly contacted a bunch of people to indulge her but sadly, they were all taken care of in advance by the well-informed Casper, just like last night.
However, he didn’t expect Bailey to arrive and intercept him again.
“Hey, don’t you think you are being too unreasonable? I was obviously here first.” Casper snatched Carmen’s bag from him unhappily and carried it on his back. “We’ve agreed that I’ll be picking up Carmen today.”
Without saying a word, Bailey snatched the bag again and carried it while moving Carmen’s box—which contained her books and materials—into the car bunker.
Seeing that, Casper was furious and he rushed toward Bailey. “Hey, old man. I seem to have warned you last night to stop this obsession of yours because Carmen will never like you. I’ve already made my words clear in the call, so please stop with your delusions.”
However, Bailey didn’t bother giving him a reply as he said to Carmen, “Get in the car first.”
Carmen looked at Casper confusedly. “Cas, what are you doing? When did you call Bailey? Why did you call him?”
